Toby Carvery owner 'sorry' over ancient tree felling in Enfield

£500 fine and they’re on their way.

We’re not growing trees like this anymore. Globally, we need to protect these ancient specimens.

Initially they said it was to protect the costumers and workers at the pub ... I assumed they had outdoor tables under the tree or something, but:

They probably got off on cutting it down. Sick bastards.

What I find interesting is all the blame appears to be getting laid at Toby's feet. They're not tree experts, why are the people that felled it not also under fire?

They of everyone involved should have known best to say "fuck no, I ain't cutting that down". But they were paid to cut down a tree so they took the money and cut down the tree.

That's not to say the carvery shouldn't be under fire, I just think the tree experts should be mostly held accountable rather than a pub manager.
